It’s been a long time since I watched Stargate but I feel like that’s one that’s okay to set down before the end

It’s the same as , Liberals love a quiet creeping fascism with good PR. has been kidnapping indigenous kids and forcibly sterilizing indigenous women well into the present day.

Must be one of those types that just want to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian

Some men experience side effects like reduced/absent libido, depression, and other negative mental health effects. I don’t know how rare they are but to me it’s not worth the risk just for my own vanity. Sure the pharma companies deny it’s a thing but they have a clear profit motive so I don’t trust a damn word they say

Yea that’s me rn. It hasn’t hit me yet (at least not noticably) but when it does I’m just embracing it. I know there’s medication/treatment but between cost and potential side effects (as someone who already struggles with mental health the possibility of Post Finasteride Syndrome scares the shit out of me) it’s not worth it.

Plus I have a personal aversion to the idea of clinging on to youth or denying aging. Nothing against people trying to look how they want to but I’m embracing aging, it feels so much less stressful than the alternative

I’ll never understand how people can look at what happens to a place when you seed it with thousands/millions of landmines and still think “hey that’s a good idea, let’s do that!”

Just plant a bunch of hidden murder traps and dust off your hands, no need to think of the next generation(s)! And don’t even worry about having a plan to ensure the eventual safe disarming and disposal of these fields of bombs, that’s someone else’s problem!

I’m always reminded that CBC was including a graph of Israeli & Palestinian deaths after October 7 in their reporting on Gaza. They quietly stopped including it when Palestinian deaths dwarfed Israeli deaths and made it clear that Israel was killing indiscriminately

They definitely had a human zoo at the International Colonial and Export Exhibition in 1883, and possibly as late as 1928 but those sources are all in dutch

I always read it as Gisnep but with a backwards G

They’re doing this shit where I live too, except it’s making sure you’re exposed to the elements as much as possible as a way of “discouraging” people from using transit stops for shelter. They didn’t want people using them as shelters from our brutal winters so they made sure no one can stay warm while they wait, problem solved!

Ugh I dunno if I just noticed it but the spread of “only x small payments!” financing for the smallest purchases can’t be a good sign
